Re: [tycho-dev] Plan for 0.23.0 release?

The "Mac App layout" changes in p2 caused an open blocker bug [1] that we won't manage to fix until tomorrow. Therefore I don't have a good feeling at creating a Tycho release right now.

On the other hand, I also see the need of the Eclipse Platform for a Tycho release.

As a compromise, we could do a release, but name it in a way that indicates that this is an intermediate state. E.g. call the version 0.22.5?
Then, we could do the Tycho 0.23.0 release shortly after Mars, with hopefully also a fix for bug [1].

@Tycho committers: What do you think?

Best regards
Tobias
